A horror, trash, sci-fi, action podcast. The Common Craig, his wife, Nicole, and other contributors, discuss genre movies with their own brand of whimsical wit. Join them as they withstand the lengthy horrors of segments like the FOCUS OF FEAR! They decide whether a movie survives to live on in their collection, or meets a grisly demise in AMASS OR MURDER! Their bloodlust demands that an anthology movie does battle with itself, in the ANTHOLOGY DEATHMATCH! Will these depraved despots ever release and discuss their captives from the DUNGEON OF DIRECTORS? Or are they too busy carving up someone's career in another ACTOR AUTOPSY? The only way to find out, is to listen! Allow this to be YOUR cure, as well.
A documentary filmmaker, known for exploring the supernatural, disappears without a trace! But we get to view his final film. Will we disappear after watching it? You never know. Until you watch, Noroi (2005)!
You're a woman who goes to the English countryside for some solitude and some time to heal after the death of your spouse. And instead of having time alone, you find yourself being constantly bothered by Men (2022).
What happens when you combine a young FBI agent with psychic abilities, a serial killer, children, life-size dolls with silver spheres in their heads, T. Rex, Satanism, and Nicolas Cage? You get one unsettling movie.
Are you wearing your Longlegs (2024) today, almost-birthday girl?
Gothic horror from Italian master, Mario Bava! A small village is cursed by the ghost of a young child, who just so happens to be causing a number of deaths. Operazione Paura, Operation Fear, Die toten Augen des Dr. Dracula, Curse of the Living Dead, Don't Walk in the Park? None of those titles feel like a good fit for this movie, and neither does Kill, Baby...Kill! (1966), but I guess we'll just go with tha...
The adorable animals are back! This time in snake form! We have slithering serpent friends in showers, at carnivals, in air ducts, and liquor cabinets. Oh, and definitely on a plane. Join us as we sink our fangs into Snakes on a Plane (2006), Venom (1981), and Sssssss (1973)! Yes, the title is really Sssssss. Don't say it, HISS it!
If you ever find yourself seeing demons or inhuman things, and are really uncertain as to whether or not they are dreams or reality, maybe you would develop a feeling of solidarity by watching Jacob's Ladder (1990). Actually, no. Maybe that's not such a good idea.
Sydney Sweeney is hugely popular! This is bound to be our most successful podcast episode ever! Except, well, she's not actually on the show or anything. We just happen to be discussing a movie in which she stars, and also happens to produce. But it's some good old religious horror, so there's that, at least. Sydney Sweeney IS Immaculate (2024)!
More than four years after we discussed the first film in the series, we're returning to the depths of Clive Barker's imagination. Some of us more reluctantly than others. But make no mistake, it's time to play.
Puzzle boxes, people without skin, chains with fishhooks, Kirsty, people with nails or pins in their heads, blood and goo, Julia. Yes, they're all back for more in Hellbound: Hellraiser II (...
Is that a vampire, or a puppet? A celebration in a small French village leads to madness and chaos. And a witch's curse plagues a small Massachusetts town. It can only be the Winter of Folk Horror rising again!
Join us for The Vourdalak (2023), Litan (1982), and The City of the Dead (1960)!
They don't call it the curse for nothing. Wait. What are we talking about here? Are we talking about menstrual cycles or werewolves? Yes! The Fitzgerald sisters finally get their due on the podcast! Happy Valentine's Day to the Common Craig! It's Ginger Snaps (2000) time!
Bill Paxton, director? Yes, it's true! Bill made his feature film directorial debut with Frailty (2001), in which he also stars as a single father with two sons. He believes that he has been visited in the night by an angel, who has instructed him and his sons to hunt demons. However, his oldest son, Fenton, is more than a little concerned when these demons have human names and actually appear to be human!
What do a torso, an eyeball, and an opera all have in common? Those are the titles of the gialli we are covering for Giallo January Two! Or due, sorry.
A killer using red and black scarves as their chosen weapon, pursues a group of ladies to a country villa in Sergio Martino's Torso (1973)! A group of American tourists become victims of a maniac who is after a particular body part, in Umberto Lenzi'...
2024 seems like it was actually a very solid year for horror movie releases. And while the Common Craig did not see them all, he did see 33 new horror-ish releases from last year. Let's rank them and decide the best and the worst of 2024!
The holiday spectacular returns for a sixth time! It's Horror for the Holidays!
We visit a boarding school with a group of Christmas killers who plan to summon a demon in The Sacrifice Game (2023). We then join a family driving to a holiday gathering who take a shortcut to nowhere in Dead End (2003). Come with us and meet a signalman who is just trying to do his job, but a pesky spectre keeps bothering h...
A ship reappears after having been missing for seven years. Obviously, complete disregard for safety tells us that we have to go check it out, right? And where did this ship go for seven years? Another dimension? Maybe hell? Oh, yeah. This is going to go well. And the ship is in space, of course. This is the voyage of the starship, Event Horizon (1997).
It's important to have friends. People who can be relied upon in both good times and bad. But if you're on a cave adventure, and you suddenly come upon an unexpected, hostile threat, can you really count on those people? The ladies in The Descent (2005), just happen to face such a challenge.
More child trauma? Two episodes in a row? Apparently, we just can't get enough. When little Peter hears knocking, and then a voice, coming from his wall, his parents seem desperate to discourage him from pursuing an explanation. But, as the tagline for the movie says, "sooner or later, family secrets creep out." And in this movie, something actually does creep out! Lizzy Caplan, Antony Starr, and Cleopa...
David Cronenberg's cathartic exercise on film, a result of a personal custody battle, is not all body horror. There is genuine child and family trauma at its core. And because of that, The Brood (1979) is not always a pleasant watch. Perhaps Cronenberg's most personal film, it still packs quite a punch some 45 years later.
A ballerina vampire must get bored between recitals, I guess. Especially considering that if you're immortal, you probably have A LOT of recitals. So, who can blame Abigail for wanting to kill some of her father's henchpeople in her spare time?
We're kicking off our new A-Z of Horror Series with Abigail (2024)!
After 5 years, I guess that it's finally time to talk about a Nicole favorite for our 135th episode. And I can't even complain, because it's a horror comedy love letter to George Romero's zombie classics. But that's ridiculous! Don't say the Z word! We present to you, what can only be, the SHAUNNIVERSARY! It's Shaun of the Dead (2004)!
If you've ever wanted to know about champagne, satanism, the Stonewall Uprising, chaos theory, LSD, El Nino, true crime and Rosa Parks, then look no further. Josh and Chuck have you covered.
